A GOOD WALK
win and secure the winning point for Dundalk. It was a great win for Dundalk who used 12 different players throughout the competition and fielded five U16s in the final. It was Dundalk’s 11th win in the competition since it started in 1991.
The U15s claimed their third Seapoint Trophy with wins over Greenore in the semi-final and Co Louth in the final. The team was Tom Dunne, Christopher Clarke, Cillian Halpenny and James Reilly with Fionn Duffy as the unused sub. It’s been a great year for Cillian Halpenny as he was named Juvenile Golfer of the Year and the end of season awards night last week.
The U13s just missed out making it a treble for Dundalk as they went down to Greenore in the final of the McCooey Cassidy Trophy having beaten Co Louth in the semi-final. This was another very young team and there is no doubt that Lee Egan, Cian Spaight, Rory Henry and Eoin Purton as well as the unused subs Ben Cahill and Sean Spaight are ones to watch in the coming years.
Wednesday’s Open Singles Stableford was won by Jamie McCaul (18) who shot 40pts, one better than Niall McCaul (8).
